Setup

The Bash Shell

Windows

Mac OS X

The default shell in all versions of Mac OS X is Bash, so no
need to install anything. You can access Bash from the Terminal
(found in
/Applications/Utilities). You may want to keep
Terminal in your dock for this workshop.

Linux

The default shell is usually Bash, but if your
machine is set up differently you can run it by opening a
terminal and typing bash. There is no need to
install anything.
